ALMANACK AND TIDE TABLE,
Jult/, 1836, io July, 1837.
The following Tables, having been constructed on strictly scientific prin-
ciples, will, it is presumed, be found as accurate as any Tables of the
same kind yet offered to the public.
On the subject of the Tide, it may be noticed that the Tide wave roll-
ing northward from the Atlantic Ocean, on its arrival at the British
Isles, divides into three branches : one proceeds up the English Channel,
another enters St. George's Channel, south, and the third flows round
the west and north west coasts of Ireland, meeting the north branch
near the Isle of Man. From the two latter branches our Tide is derived,
and must therefore necessarily partake of the irregularities produced on
THEM, by the action of high winds, giving rise to some anomilies that are
sometimes observed, while no apparent cause is operating in the Clyde
itself. The time and elevation of high water are also considerably
affected by high winds in the Clyde. From the form and course of the
Frith, it will be easily seen that a gale from N.N.W. or N. W. by
opposing the flow of the Tide, will cause the time of high water to be
earlier, and the height of the Tide to be less than it otherwise would be,
while a gale from an opposite direction would have an effect quite the
contrary, so as sometimes to make the Tide vary half an hour, or even
more, from the time noted in the Table.
